King's Walden homes and their sealant
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in.
Rented homes near Luton Airport Parkway station change hands often, and a reseal between tenants is a quick way to make the bathroom and kitchen look cared for. Homes close to Church of St Mary include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.

King's Walden: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Luton Airport Parkway station?
Yes. We work for letting agents and landlords as well as homeowners. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear price.
Will you come out to King's Walden?
Yes, we do. Our work covers London and the South East, from towns to the smallest places. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, a 12-month guarantee. Good ventilation and gentle cleaning help it last.
How long will the resealing take?
A single bath or shower takes about a couple of hours, old sealant removal included. A full bathroom and kitchen can take most of a day.
Is it worth trying it myself?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. Most DIY failures come from sealing over old material, wet joints or too much sealant.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. We protect the surfaces around the joints, and we tidy up before we go.
Do you reseal kitchen worktops and sinks too?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then a colour-matched bead is laid.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchen worktops & upstands
The joint between worktop and wall takes splashes, crumbs and cleaning sprays. We seal them in a colour that suits the worktop.
Sinks & splashbacks
Where a splashback meets the worktop, there’s a joint that catches every splash. We renew it in clear, white or a matched colour.
What affects the quote in King's Walden
You will get a clear quote before we start. It’s based on:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The amount of work
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The product the joint needs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part.
What we need to know
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- If someone has resealed it before
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel
Asking for a quote is easy: tell us what needs doing and where and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.
Why deal with it now?
Dealing with sealant early is a short job: it takes a couple of hours for a single bath or shower. Left until water gets through, the job can grow to lifting panels, drying out and decorating. Around King's Walden, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how much old material has to come out and access to the work. You will have a clear quote before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- A choice of colours where the product allows
- Colour agreed with you before we start
- Every job guaranteed for a year
- Full insurance on every job

What we do, step by step
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we’ll get on with it. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. Somewhere as small as King's Walden, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- The old silicone is cut out completely, along with the film it leaves on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- The bead is tooled smooth and you’re told the cure time, usually around 24 hours.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Advice
Common problems we fix in King's Walden
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Sealant that has split, shrunk or peeled away
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Shrunken sealant along the back of a worktop
- Water getting behind the bath panel
Managing a site like Breachwood Green Junior Mixed and Infant School? Then its toilets, changing areas and kitchens need their sealant renewed like any other building’s.

Aftercare tips
Simple care keeps the joints in good condition. Our advice:
- Don’t leave water standing on kitchen joints
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
- Keep the fan on for a while after bathing
Clean the silicone with care: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, and a nicked bead lets mould in sooner.
Do not wait for a refit to deal with failed sealant. Sealant is a maintenance item, like the paint on a window frame, and replacing it when it fails protects the rest of the room.
